I'm not quite sure how to feel about this one. I enjoyed reading it and was absolutely drawn in, but in the end I'm not sure I liked any of the main characters except Marianella, and I can't say that I liked her ending, either. It did go in an interesting direction, and some of the twists I missed, which I very much liked. This book doesn't pull punches with the ending or the events of the book, but I don't think I'm happy it ended realistically.

Like I said, I have complicated feelings about this but was very much drawn in and compelled by the story, I'll definitely be checking out something else Cassandra Rose Clarke has written!
